Lucet
Lucetting is believed to date back to the Viking period, when it was used to create cords that were used on clothing, or to hang items from the belt. Lucet cord is square, strong, and slightly springy. Lucet cord is formed by a series of loops, and will therefore unravel if cut.
To make a cord start by holding the thread are going to use against the Lucet, wrap the thread around the horns of the lucet to make a figure of 8. Then wrap the thread around the first horn again so that there are 2 strands around it, lift the lower thread(the first loop) over the horn and pull down.
